I think it is insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
Yes. One that is likely to last quite a while if you look at orbital and axial conditions which exist today.
(we are , I believe in an inter-glacial period of an Ice age)
Most CO2 scenarios (15) led to an exceptionally long interglacial from 5000 years before the present to 50,000 years from now (see the bottom panel of the figure), with the next glacial maximum in 100,000 years. Only for CO2 concentrations less than 220 ppmv was an early entrance into glaciation simulated (15).

It does look like, to me, that the data shows and Ice ball is more likely than naked people running all over the Arctic due to the earth being so warm for at least the end of this ice age (we are , I believe in an inter-glacial period of an Ice age)

I agree . We are at the very end of a interglacial period. And a new and like clock work
ice age is here IMO .Someone posted it was 50k from now?
That would be a large deviation from the last 2 million years.
We have been thawing for 12,000 years. I'd love to see evidence
in the last 2 million years of an interglacial period lasting 62,000 years
because that's analmolous and not scientific.
For the last two million years it's been 90-100k of ice and 7-12k of thaw .
Humans did warm the planet with hydrocarbons but temps and co2 are way off now.
If we think our puny contribution of heat will keep us warm as the Sun
continues its dive to slumber, we are dead wrong.
Sunspot counts and temps will be found to be a much better correlation than co2
and temps.Regardless of politics It's gonna get cold folks and soon .
The Sun and its currently shrinking heliosphere are the boss of all climate on every planet.
I'm not pro oil by any means and we need to clean up our act,
but the IPCC not taking that million mile wide lightbulb into consideration
as far as variability is puzzling .The Maunder Minimum started with its sunspot
plummet almost exactly the way our current count is going.

We're way beyond that 22O and have been for a very long time. Since before we started burning so much stuff.
